The most important thing is that the scholarship provides greater financial stability. It significantly helps cover the costs of additional literature related to studying the Korean language and Korea in general. It helps avoid looking for extra part-time work and allows me to focus more on my studies, as well as cover everyday expenses, including those related to university studies.
Financial support motivates me to continue studying and confirms that my efforts are worthwhile. I plan to continue studying the Korean language at a deep level. I will also continue to cover the costs of literature, resources, and knowledge assessment thanks to the support of the foundation.
I am sincerely grateful to absolutely everyone involved in this Foundation who provides the opportunity to receive support. This serves as proof that one’s own efforts are not in vain, that they are recognized and meaningful for personal development and studies. It also creates an understanding of how important, useful, and relevant such support is. I am undoubtedly grateful to Denys Antipov’s parents for creating the foundation and providing support to students studying the Korean language. This is truly important, and I greatly appreciate their help. Unfortunately, I did not have the opportunity to be a student under Denys’s guidance, but I know very well what a wonderful teacher and person he was, thanks to the stories from senior students who had the chance to study with him. I understand how great and significant his knowledge and dedication were for the students, their future, and Ukraine in general.
Thank you sincerely to everyone! I appreciate your actions and help.
I think that additional support in the form of mentorship or the opportunity to participate in projects is extremely useful — it is among the top priorities for improvement. The very possibility of receiving scholarship support is already wonderful. Even minimal financial assistance is valuable and useful. Increasing the amount of payments could raise students’ motivation and results, but this is not extremely necessary or the top priority. In my opinion, providing opportunities for professional development and acquiring knowledge would be an extremely useful form of support. This helps build the students’ future, especially in their chosen field. Such support would be highly valued. I would be glad to have such opportunities."
